A comment on Conversation: Nuclear energy is unsafe

Jul 15 2011: Technology is making safer and safer nuclear plants. The problem is that some places are not adequate for a nuclear plant. Japan is a sismic country so it is a really bad idea to build so much nuclear plants there. In Chile, for example, is another really bad idea to build nuclear plants!!

Jul 15 2011: Is a set of knowledge systematically organized! That way any new idea need to be explained and coherent with ols ideas. If something can be explained, the science reject the new idea, or the idea change the science!
